Following the rules: Five regulatory updates for the supplement industry

EE18-supplements-variety-regulations-getty.png
Join former FDA employee and current Faegre Baker Daniels counsel Jason Sapsin for a discussion about the current legal issues affecting the supplement industry.

“We all have a vested interest in maintaining and improving the public’s perception of the safety of dietary supplements. The industry does not run without consumer confidence.”

— Jason Sapsin, Counsel, Faegre Baker Daniels

Highlights:

  • With CBD products, you can be prosecuted at any time for any level of THC.
  • Probiotics have never been actually approved by the FDA for any therapeutic indication: the stronger your claims, the more likely you’ll be targeted.
  • New dietary ingredients (NDI) are probably the lowest level of concern; currently, there’s no enforcement.
  • The FDA has jurisdiction over roughly 20-25 cents of every dollar spent by every consumer in the U.S.—an enormous regulatory footprint.
  • Learn why Medicare Advantage may represent the single greatest opportunity for dietary supplement manufacturers and distributors in the last 5-10 years.
